Former Minister of Defense Moshe Ya'alon has called on leaders of the "change camp" to establish a government in cooperation with the United Arab List, led by MK Dr. Mansour Abbas, and to secure support from the Joint List from outside the coalition. Ya'alon, who also previously served as IDF Chief of Staff, made these remarks during a conference.
He advised the change camp to ally with the United Arab List, which he described as recognizing Israel as a Jewish and democratic state. Ya'alon differentiated the Joint List, stating it has not yet reached that point and therefore could support a government from the outside.
In related developments, the United Arab List has nominated Gadi Eisenkot for the formation of a new government. Dr. Mansour Abbas informed the President that his party is the largest in the Arab community, leading the Front by three seats. Abbas asserted that the current government has failed and that an alternative government can be formed despite complexities. Regarding investigations into alleged foreign interference in elections, he expressed confidence and readiness to face law enforcement agencies.
MK Yoav Segalovitch of the United Arab List told the President that in his experience with investigations, he had never encountered such a review before.
